Guys buy this http://store.steampowered.com/app/253980/ its a solid action game and price is well worth it.

I bought it on GoG a while back and I found it pretty meh. Lots of missed potential.

Well true it is a shallow game, and its nowhere as good as, for example, Severance but visually it was quite good, maps filled with secrets and combat was well meh but overall I find it a nice little game and for that price tag you cant go wrong.

Banished. I wish I listened and didnt buy this.

What? That game is great!

IL2 "5 games in 1" an arcade multiplayer ww2 areal combat smashup according to SMA. Cant wait to try this.

I hope you don't expect an arcade game as you were told, because it is a hardcore flight sim and not easy to play well. Especially in multiplayer.

For the first hour. And then you realize you've seen all the content the game has to offer.

Just tried it and it still works (and I didn't even really want the game).

I'd disagree.

Banished has virtually no late game content or goals to aspire to beyond getting as big a population as you can. I pretty much always quit once I start getting large food surpluses (usually around pop ~200).

I'm also annoyed that the promised extensive mod tools are still no where to be seen. Considering that the game was such a big seller and presumably had such a small cost you'd think the creator would be a enthusiastic about improving and expanding the game. Yet all we've seen are a few bug fixes.

I played 20 hours until I had enough of it, but that 20 hours was a blast. Very good mechaics, nice atmoshpere, overall a great game. Sure, I won't play it again, but I got my money worth.

Devolver games are on sale, Duke 3D Megaton Edition and Shadow Warrior Classic are worth some euros, don't forget to disable the terrible "smooth textures" though.

Too bad it's such an obvious shopjob.

 

[funkadelik]

I haven't participated in a Steam sale in atleast a year. I have atleast 100 games I bought but never installed or cared to play. It's like a really perverse version of gambling where I know I lose every time.

Just because you bought a ton of shitty games before doesn't mean there aren't good games to buy now. Stop buying shit for no reason and research.

Wrong. I already have all the good games. It's the optimism in me that encourages this depraved behavior.

So, I pretty much liked the Sale, I bought:
Divinity Original Sin Digital Collectors edition though I'll probably wait for some patches and Russian translation.
Legends of Eisenwald - won't play it till the release, but wanted to support the devs.
Cinders - a feminist VN based on Cinderella story :kwafuckyeah:
Oknytt - a very cool atmospheric adventure game based on Scandinavian folklore!! Don't miss!!!!
Year Walk - some strange game, haven't touched it yet though.
Final Fantasy VIII - probably will complete once again on a pc.
Blackguards: Untold Legends - huge discount+support for Blackguards 2.
Transistor - playing it right now, not an OMG 11/10 GOTY, but it's okay and it looks/sounds great.
System Shock 2 - for a dollar

+ a bunch of small indies for my wife.

I didn't buy anything during this Steam sale.

That wasn't entirely accurate. I gifted a copy of UnderRail, but it wasn't on sale. It's still worth every penny. /shill

I have even better idea - stop buying ANY game until you have time to play them. No, answer "b-b-but it's promo!" is not right.
That should save you from Backlog Syndrome and other people from your mumbling....

Banished. I wish I listened and didnt buy this.

What? That game is great!

IL2 "5 games in 1" an arcade multiplayer ww2 areal combat smashup according to SMA. Cant wait to try this.

I hope you don't expect an arcade game as you were told, because it is a hardcore flight sim and not easy to play well. Especially in multiplayer.

i gave banished another go last night and i was up till 4 am playing it then my town got wiped out by a tornado. everything was in prefect equilibrium until that moment and there were dozens of potential optimisations i hadn't implemented.

I'm pretty sure only EA is getting paid for that.
